I took the road test this morning (first time) and I passed!! The whole road test process was relatively simple and very quick (about 15 minutes).&lt;BR/&gt;I noticed the process is slightly different for men and women. For men, the students are gathered into a van (which moves along with the test car) and students from the van take turns to drive the test car with the examiners along the test route. Once the student finishes his test he is dropped off at the bus stop to take a taxi home. &lt;BR/&gt;For ladies, only two student goes into the car at a time, one driving and one as the back passenger (no van, thank goodness). There are two examiners sitting in the car (usually one man and one lady, one in front and one behind). The first student will drive from the Muroor traffic department around the area  and then half way through, the second student will take over and drive back to the traffic department. Then the examiners will give you your results (Pass/Fail). &lt;BR/&gt;I think the road test is much simpler in Abu Dhabi compared to Dubai (from all that I have read). For ladies, the waiting time is not long (one month from opening of file for those with a license from other countries) and the test itself is straightforward and fast. The police examiners were also very polite and professional.</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/81120756159641922/742144017858598957/comments/default/3953175579988378241'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/81120756159641922/742144017858598957/comments/default/3953175579988378241'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://lighterside.shijaz.com/2008/05/certified-reverse-parking-specialist.html?showComment=1218631080000#c3953175579988378241' title=''/><author><name>Alice</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img1.blogblog.com/img/blank.gif'/></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://lighterside.shijaz.com/2008/05/certified-reverse-parking-specialist.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-81120756159641922.post-742144017858598957' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/81120756159641922/posts/default/742144017858598957' type='text/html'/><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='blogger.itemClass' value='pid-1797285416'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-81120756159641922.post-8372731088202345865</id><published>2008-06-11T08:08:00.000+04:00</published><updated>2008-06-11T08:08:00.000+04:00</updated><title type='text'>I am 5'2" tall.
